Mother and daughter tandem Marjorie and Julia Barretto recently agreed to be interviewed for the April 13 episode of Showbiz Inside Report.

Julia is considered one of the most promising young actresses of her generation. The 16-year-old actress was recently launched as part of ABS-CBN’s Star Magic Circle 2013. Julia is Marjorie's daughter with actor Dennis Padilla.

JULIA AS A CHILD.

Showbiz Inside Report host Carmina Villarroel asked Marjorie to describe how Julia was like as a child.

Marjorie recalled, “Di ko siya natatandaang iyakin…”

Carmina then brought out Julia’s baby blanket, which surprised the teenage actress.

Julia narrated: “I had this [blanket] since I was born…for 16 years. Nilalabhan 'yan secretly…Iba yung feel iba yung touch."

The host then asked Julia to talk about the significance of the phrase "face the wall” to her.

“I’m the type of ate that I will give time sa kanila…I’m medyo strict with them [her siblings].”

One of the important values that Marjorie taught her children is to be honest and open with each other.

Carmina asked Julia about an incident wherein she heard certain “voices” when she was 12 years old.

Julia narrates, “When I heard those voices, I was so scared talaga. She [Marjorie] was going through something…She got my hand, we went to her room and she made me sit on her lap. Hinug na lang niya ako and we were both crying.”

During the interview, Julia agreed to read an entry from her diary, which she has been maintaning ever since she was 7 years old.

She read out aloud: “Dear Diary, you know how much I love my mom. Of course, I understand her when gets mad or something. I’m so happy she is my mom. She’s kind, pretty tall and all positive and I love her...”

Marjorie revealed that she read parts of Julia’s diary that pinched her heart. During that time, Marjorie was active in politics. She recalled entries that stated: “Saddest day: mom is never home. Happiest day: mom will be with us already. No more campaigning…”

At that point, Marjorie asked herself: “Ganoon na ba ka-unhappy ang mga anak ko?" As a result, she decided to quit politics to give more time for her children.

JULIA'S SHOWBIZ COMEBACK.

Julia started as a child star. At age 9, she worked on several television projects such as Palos, Kokey and Walang Kapalit.

She has her dad's eyes and Marjorie's facial features. She doesn't look like Gretchen at all to me. Before all those injections on her face, ang ganda ganda ni greta may make-up man o wala, di nakakasawang tingnan. Julia is pretty too but I've seen lots of prettier faces.

She hears voices at age 12? Naku, Tita C in the making! Baka bipolar din ito and eventually will have the same problem like her Tita if not checked properly. Now that she is in showbiz, stress might magnify it..again like her Tita.

Di ba Schizophrenia yang ganyan....may naririnig na voices? hmmm. She should see a doctor for some medication.

What's Marjorie's source of income since she's out of the politics already? As per her online posts, they seem to live a lavish lifestyle. Sikat ba talaga si Julia? Sorry ha, I have no idea kasi wala ako sa Pinas. Or she is just of those this-moment-fame?

I think may lahing kastila c dennis padilla kaya maganda ang mixture nila ni Marjorie.. gandang bata sana di matulad sa Tita C nya.. Basta gabay lng huwag pabayaan sisikat ang batang ito. Look at the smile, the eyes..the nose.. almost perfect...Barretos are well known of their flawless skin I'm sure namana ng batang ito. Marjorie take care of your daughter and for sure she will be one of the best in her generation. That's it pansit..
